Default CEL light codes....only one result and no explanation in search

I went to get my oil changed today and VAGed the car to check the CEL light that i got yesterday. I did a search on the codes but didn't get much out of it. Please help...here are the codes.

17965 - Turbo Pressure Control Exceeded
16486 - Mass airflow Sensor (G70) Signal Too Low

I know 16486 is quite popular and indicated a bad MAF. The turbo pressure control exceeded is the one i am not sure about. Can the two codes be related?? I am also having transmission problems...when the car is shifted into Drive the car jerks excessively.

Turbo pressure exceeded could be your N75 valve, but there are 2 of them,N75a & N75b.

Default I can get the mass sensor and new N75 for 1/2 price if you want, check tranny fluids then recode to

stock settings without tip chip and see what happens. hope nothing was burnt.I know that 2000 had an automatic tranny problem.

Default cool thanks...do you think the jerking could be a result of the engine mount/snub mount??

below is a link to my warranty. I guess my tranny should be covered. The N75 valve is part of the turbo components...right?? you think that'll be covered???

thanks a lot for helping me out...<ul><li><a href="http://www.continentalwarranty.com/freedom.htm">http://www.continentalwarranty.com/freedom.htm</a</li></ul>
